What of a mineral will determine if it floats or sinks in water?
The density of the mineral compared to the density of water will determine if it floats or sinks. If the mineral has a lower density than water, it will float; if it has a higher density, it will sink.
Which property of an object will never affect whether the object sinks or floats?
The color or surface texture of an object will never affect whether it sinks or floats. The buoyancy of an object is dependent on its density compared to the density of the fluid it is placed in.
How does the volume of an object affect whether it sinks or floats?
Whether an object sinks or floats is determined by its density in relation to the density of the fluid it's in. If the object is less dense than the fluid, it will float; if it's more dense, it will sink. The volume of an object alone doesn't affect whether it sinks or floats; it's the relationship between its volume and its overall density that determines its buoyancy.
How does water sink and float?
Water sinks or floats in other liquids based on their relative densities. If an object is denser than water, it will sink. If it is less dense, it will float. This is due to the principle of buoyancy, where the upward force exerted by a fluid opposes the weight of the object, determining whether it sinks or floats.
Floats and sinks But never stinks Flat and round Makes no sound Light in colour also in rubber What is it?
A balloon.
Which one has more density the one that floats or sinks?
sinks
Which object weighs more a can that floats or a can that sinks?
It is impossible to tell; whether an object floats or sinks depends on its density, not on its weight.
What sinks in water sinks to the bottom then floats again?
Not Yassine JR
Soap or styrofoam which one floats?
Styrofoam floats on water, Soap sinks.
What determains if an object floats or sinks?
The Density.
How does a submarine works that floats then sinks and then again floats?
A submarine sinks as it fills its' ballast tanks with water. Then it uses pressurized air to empty them and float again.
Why iron nail floats on mercury but sinks on water.?
Iron has a higher density than water, so it sinks in water; but is less dense than mercury so it floats.
Witch floats a peeled orange or an unpeeled orange?
A peeled orange floats A not peeled orange sinks
What would not affect the level at which a canoe floats in a pond?
it sinks
What of a mineral will determine if it floats or sinks in water?
The density of the mineral compared to the density of water will determine if it floats or sinks. If the mineral has a lower density than water, it will float; if it has a higher density, it will sink.
What floats in a bucket of water for 1 minute and then sinks to the bottom?
seamen
Why do some float and others sink?
Whether an object floats or sinks is a function of its relative density, to the medium in which it is placed. If the object is less dense, it floats, If it is more dense, it sinks. Density = Mass per unit Volume
